Well, first things first...why the hell is Iron man taking up all of the AvX 12 cover?

Compositional reasons that a group of artists and editors probably agreed upon.

Or...Iron Man IS dying in this event.

Would explain why he's suddenly black in the Now picture.

[CyberHubbs]

I just wanna know if Young is doing the interiors on the babies one-shot.

Nah, got a movie coming out next year. Or they do like they did with Thor after Fear Itself.

yeah they do, but I'm expecting diddly squat. Marvel could have really blown the doors off of this SDCC with huge announcements and stormed the place and the media like DC did with the new 52. Instead, they've completely wasted everyone's time.

Instead of launching a big slate of new titles and creators, we're probably just going to get a slow dribble of CBR articles about a title here, and a title there. A completely wasted opportunity and if I'd lined up for any of Marvel's panels, I'd be pissed. Hell, I'm pissed just having gotten excited about following the reports of today and yesterday's panels, only to hear more about Northstar's wedding, books that were announced months ago (including one that's out in a week), and an AvX Babies one-shot.

That Gillen book sounds great, I cannot wait for that

[Sabrewulf]

Nice to see Dennis Hopeless getting a look in amongst the usual suspects on Point One. There may be another book I pick up yet. That being said we still haven't seen half the stories in the first one come to anything yet.

So

Matt Fraction + Larroca on Fantastic Four
Loeb and Mcguiness on Nova.
Bendis and Mcniven on Guardians of the Galaxy???
Nick Spencer, Hopeless, McKelvie and Allred on some new stuff.

Loeb is definitely doing a Nova story in the Point One since his tease was "Diamondhead", an original villain of Nova back in the day

Also, Mark Waid on Avengers Assemble, or so the rumours go. And Gillen/Land on Iron Man and Remender/JRJ on Cap.

I thought Uncanny Avengers was basically A+X. Did they say this other book is ongoing? They really need to start clarifying some things. It's hard to get excited about anything when it's all just confusing.

Also someone really needs to ask if all the new ongoings will be $3.99 throughout or just the first issue with the code.

[santino27]

Why do we need follow-up minis and companion series to an event that is already going to be 12+ issues long AND has its own companion series already?

I think Marvel just plain goofed in announcing Marvel Now! already; everything they are announcing now is just filler until that relaunch, and I think a lot of people are ready to move on.
